What changes the calories
- Size matters most: a small apple (158 g) has 100 calories while a large one (236 g) has 149 calories, so guessing the size can shift your total noticeably.
- Weighing a whole apple includes the core and stem, which you usually don't eat, so the weight of what you actually eat is lower than the whole-fruit weight.
- Drying an apple removes water, so dried apple packs more calories into each gram than fresh apple.
- Cooking apples on their own changes calories little, but baked apples, pies and sauces often add sugar, butter or other ingredients that raise the total.
Tips for logging it accurately
- For the most accurate entry, weigh the apple slices or the edible part on a kitchen scale and log by grams rather than picking a size.
- Log raw apple for a fresh piece of fruit, and add peanut butter, caramel, cheese or other toppings as separate entries.
- In BerryFit, snap a photo of your apple or sliced apple plate and adjust the portion if the estimate doesn't match what you ate.
